More retro Sega console titles hitting XBLA, PSN

Sega has announced that it would be releasing a slew of retro console titles on Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network, including the Wonder Boy and Alex Kidd series.

However, it seems that PSN gamers will be getting sort of the short end of the stick, as each of the games will cost $4.99 USD, while XBLA gamers will get two game packs that cost 800 Microsoft Points ($9.99 USD) each.

The following titles will be released on the PlayStation Network on the 22nd May for $4.99 USD each:

* Wonder Boy in Monster Land (Arcade)

* Wonder Boy in Monster World (Mega Drive)

* Monster World IV (Genesis/Mega Drive)

* Super Hang-On (Arcade)

* Revenge of Shinobi (Genesis/Mega Drive)

* Alex Kidd in Miracle World (Master System)

On the other hand, for Xbox 360 users the Monster World Collection, which had been leaked back in March will arrive on the 23rd May. It will bundle Wonder Boy in Monster Land, Wonder Boy in Monster World, and Monster World IV. The Alex Kidd & Co. Collection will be released a week later on the 30th May and include Super Hang-On, The Revenge of Shinobi, and Alex Kidd in Miracle World for the same price.
